  I've been having problems with Red Ryder's vt100 emulation while
trying to edit files with vi (on an Ultrix VAX, if that matters). As I
move the cursor along a line, the characters on the screen tend to
change their positions, generally moving themselves over one position.
I tried ZTerm, and saw similar behavior with its emulation. However,
Kermit 0.98 works perfectly, and I've been told that Versaterm does too
on our vax.
  So my question is, where does the problem lie: the emulator, the vax I'm 
logged on to, or me? (I searched through the Red Ryder manual for a solution, 
to no avail.) Would upgrading to White Knight solve this problem?

Thanks,
